__NOTOC__

'''Health''', or '''Health Points''' ("HP", occasionally "Hit Points"), represents a character's physical status in a video game. Most [[Source]] engine games use a traditional health points system, where a character is spawned with a certain number of health points which are displayed in the [[HUD]]. Taking damage will subtract from the character's health, and the character will die when HP reaches 0. Most games offer powerups and items to restore health.
{{Bug|Sometimes when a player is in godmode in the Source engine, the player may reach 0 health but still be alive.}}
{{bug|Player's or NPCs' health is not updated instantly when it's modified with {{code|addoutput "health [number]"}} input. Health will update only when player or NPC receives damage or gains health. If player's or NPC's health is depleted completely (set to 0 or lower) they will still be alive but will die in one hit from any weapon.|tested={{hl2|4}}}}
Some games, such as {{Portal|2}}, use an alternative "regenerating health" scheme, where the player's health quickly regenerates when the player is not taking damage. The health may also not be displayed onscreen.

While in many multiplayer games all characters start with the same amount of health, class-based games such as {{tf2|2}} sometimes assign different starting health values to different classes.
